Why Does the scorpion need to shed its shell?

The outer 'shell' - or exoskeleton doesn't expand (like our own skin does). Therefore - as the scorpion grows, it needs to shed its skin periodically in order to grow. Immediately after shedding - the new 'skin' is soft - but hardens within minutes. While the skin is soft, the scorpion inflates its lungs to expand its body - this givers it space to 'grow into' the new shell.
